I hope you all had a nice weekend, I might send another short SARS-CoV-2 related e-mail today, but this one was too important to just ignore, or wait for other corroborative papers to make a big post.
Evidence has been around for a while that a SARS-CoV-2 infection will affect the quality of your sperm. From this paper.
However, couples with a desire for pregnancy should be warned that sperm quality after COVID-19 infection can be suboptimal. The estimated recovery time is 3 months, but further follow-up studies are under way to confirm this and to determine if permanent damage occurred in a minority of men.
A thing to note for a future article about a paper commenting on how the virus damages the heart WITHOUT infecting the cells directly is in that paper. DNA fragmentation. Keep that in mind.
I have said for a long time, that whatever the virus does, the spike-based vaccines will do, but faster (and better).
Covid-19 vaccination BNT162b2 temporarily impairs semen concentration and total motile count among semen donors
Results
Repetitive measurements revealed −15.4% sperm concentration decrease on T2 (CI -25.5%–3.9%, p = 0.01) leading to total motile count 22.1% reduction (CI -35% - -6.6%, p = 0.007) compared to T0. Similarly, analysis of first semen sample only and samples' mean per donor resulted in concentration and TMC reductions on T2 compared to T0 - median decline of 12 million/ml and 31 million motile spermatozoa, respectively (p = 0.02 and 0.002 respectively) on first sample evaluation and median decline of 9.5×106 and 27.3 million motile spermatozoa (p = 0.004 and 0.003, respectively) on samples' mean examination. T3 evaluation demonstrated overall recovery. Semen volume and sperm motility were not impaired.
Discussion
This longitudinal study focused on SD demonstrates selective temporary sperm concentration and TMC deterioration three months after vaccination followed by later recovery verified by diverse statistical analyses.
Conclusions
Systemic immune response after BNT162b2 vaccine is a reasonable cause for transient semen concentration and TMC decline. Long-term prognosis remains good.

In simple terms, this means both the total amount of sperms and how further the move is severely impacted up to 150 after 2 doses of the Pfizer vaccine.
Both, sperm count and motility are important, but from my perspective motility is more important than the count, because if the sperms have higher motility, even at lower concentrations, you could argue there are higher chances for success.
Laughable is the “Long-Term prognosis remains good”, how do they know that ? There is no long-term testing, let alone long-term data on infinite boosting with the same highly inflammatory protein.
This is another one that “conspiracy theorists” got right. In my personal opinion, this is reversible to a point, allied with hormone therapy. But a lot of the males double, or tripled vaccinated with consecutive infections will probably develop a permanent sperm and motility loss.
At this point we could probably just start guessing weird shit MRNA does to people and in a few weeks find out it actually happens.
Who knew that the vaccines would help with birth control?
